| April 6, 2008 Why the HP Activity Center and your ideas inspire me I love the HP Activity Center. It makes crafts possible for someone like me.
Then there's me. I didn't get what I call the family "make" gene. I am not exaggerating when I tell you that for years I thought I was a gypsy child adopted into my family. For example, while my sisters and mom receive "oohs" and "aahs" for wrapping their Christmas gifts with handmade bows and what seemed to me to be laser-cut paper and machine-precision folds, my gift-wrapped packages only needed the "to" line completed on the gift tag -- only Angela could make a package look like it was wrapped by the family dog, so putting my name next to "from" wasn't necessary. I swear. Thank goodness for gift bags. They've saved me from ongoing humiliation. For the past 2 years, the HP Activity Center has been my gift-bag equivalent for crafts. With projects ranging from easy print-and-go cards, books, and more to advanced digital scrapbooking that allow imaginative embellishments, even I can create crafts! And now I have a new resource: this community. Your discussions, your tips, your crafts, your project ideas and your presence shared here in the HP Community Wiki is my new ongoing inspiration list -- a daily webinar of creative expression. Thanks for sharing! I now have a healthy outlet for my craft envy. PS: I invite you to share your ideas on how we can make this community better. Please add your thoughts to a new thread in the discussion forum. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| April 2, 2008 Inspiration is everywhere I've led an amazing life. (Actually, my life is quite similar to most people I know: I work and get a paycheck. I have bills that need to be paid. I have a family. The cats need to be fed. I need to eat less ice cream and instead be on a first-name basis with my treadmill. That kind of stuff...) The "amazing" part of my life can be summarized this way:
And I suppose that's I why I find that life is amazing -- because for me, inspiration lives in everyday life and everyday people. And it's why I especially find inspiration here in this community. Thanks for your kindness. Thanks for your crafts, your photos, your thoughts. Thanks for sharing. You make amazing possible. | |

I am always looking for great crafts that don't use more resources unnecessarily as being conscious of my carbon footprint is something I have really started to worry about over the past years. Keep them coming!
Do you find this valuable?
